you should do research before you start saying things. This is the type of ethics I was talking about last night.

edit: I too have posted humor that was unrelated ethics in game journalism. It was during the Ellen Pao situation I believe, dealing with censorship of multiple subreddits, but it did deal with censorship which at the time was a big issue of the KiA movement. It was a WKYK sketch. Here is the thread in question.

nah, it was a longer comment, something along the lines of "I don't see what's wrong with people correlating the two games...(etc)"

I'm not gonna attack someone over some thoughts on video games, but I do like discussions and debates. I was a bit crass with my "why i said aesthetics" post. I had actually posted in that Vive thread as well trying to keep the peace by asking people to step back and not get their pitchforks out just yet.

I was actually a tad heated as well. Long discussion and being accused in a thread about a /r/KotakuInAction post that belonged in /r/TumblrInAction. So I wasn't really level headed and probably read your reply wrong

I appreciate you taking the time and effort in that comment to point out the similarities but also the differences and what really makes PT its own unique entity. You made excellent points. I hate that we were both heated when this discussion was going on.

Generally haven't been to this subreddit in quite possibly over a year, back when the whole thing blew up.

The original point was/is "what does this have to do with ethics in journalism?" I get it, it's humor. But generally humor on a subreddit dedicated to a specific topic is generally related to that topic. This has nothing to do with kia, which is why I asked if any of the 2 people in the picture are related to game development/game journalism. You skipped a major point of my post.

And by complaining, it's more or less "hey, I'm not going to shit post in this sub by making 4 word comment about the post being bad..." , but let me reword it,

"hey, haven't been to the sub since it started, but are any of those two people in game journalism/game development cause this would fit more properly in /r/tia. Can someone fill me in on who these people are?"

You were quick to pull evidence to say I wasn't serious and that it's only one post on the front page. But this one post is/was on the top of /r/all, so people who go to subreddits where posts like this are the norm, will begin to flood this place with posts like that.
I'd rather this place stay a beacon for ethics, than a place where people can post shit that doesn't pertain to the subreddit.

Ethics in Journalism is important to me. But when shit like this gets posted when there is a sub for it, i just leave. If you can think of a subreddit that actually has discussions and stuff on it, instead of posting stuff that isn't related to the subreddit, I'd appreciate it.

yo, pardon me real quick. devils advocate here.
Could it be that the game mode is not optimized for those processors yet? Instead of the developer being the big bad evil guy, could it be that, "Hey, we KNOW that these game modes work on an i7, but not on others." ?

Don't have a Vive, or this game, but were these game modes not available yesterday? or were they there playable and now taken away? Trying to get an idea here.

ninja edit: also yeah, possibility of striking deal with Intel. Should have been stated from the start, maybe, not sure yet. still looking ito this whole debacle.

You have the ability to put your hands up in the game. You can do it in the latest demo. You also have the ability to kick as well while you look for other weapons. Don't let this trailer fool you. Don't know why the team isn't showing off possibilities for encounters.

Yo, not complaining or anything. but wouldn't this post be more fitting /r/TumblrInAction? I guess I've been out of this sub for a while, but do any of those people have anything to do with game journalism/development/etc?

The reviews aren't released early or on the day of the game. Brad, Ian, Damiani, Huber, Ben, Blood, and Kyle actually take the time to play the game through and explore its contents for what it has to offer. They're really involved in their community and they have produced solid content since way back in the day at gametrailers.com(rip). I much prefer it than the other drivel that appears on /r/games.

Also, the best thing to do is to downvote and not complain about why something is on the front page. You also have the ability to report things.
